Description
L'invention concerne des microémulsions aqueuses volatiles parfumantes basées sur l'utilisation de solvo-surfactifs.The invention relates to perfuming volatile aqueous microemulsions based on the use of solvo-surfactants.
Classiquement, les parfums comprennent comme solvants des alcools, tels que l'éthanol ou encore l'isopropanol. L'utilisation de ces solvants présente, cependant, un certain nombre d'inconvénients : ils sont très volatils et inflammables, ce qui entraîne une certaine dangerosité lors de leur production, et dans une certaine mesure, de leur utilisation. D'autre part, leur propre odeur peut interférer avec celle du parfum. En outre, appliqués sur la peau ou les cheveux, ces parfums peuvent entraîner un dessèchement, en particulier chez les consommateurs à peau sensible.Conventionally, perfumes include, as solvents, alcohols, such as ethanol or else isopropanol. The use of these solvents presents, however, a certain number of disadvantages: they are very volatile and flammable, which involves a certain dangerousness during their production, and to a certain extent, their use. On the other hand, their own smell can interfere with that of the perfume. In addition, applied to the skin or hair, these fragrances can cause dryness, especially in consumers with sensitive skin.
On assiste donc actuellement, pour des raisons notamment de santé publique et/ou d'écologie, à l'émergence de nouvelles compositions parfumantes. L'objectif poursuivi est la diminution voire l'élimination des composés organiques volatils (tels que les alcools) contenus dans les parfums, en développant des compositions parfumantes sous forme de solutions ou de dispersions aqueuses stables.We are therefore currently witnessing, for reasons in particular of public health and / or ecology, the emergence of new perfume compositions. The objective pursued is the reduction or even the elimination of volatile organic compounds (such as alcohols) contained in perfumes, by developing perfuming compositions in the form of stable aqueous solutions or dispersions.
Cependant, la plupart des molécules parfumantes sont hydrophobes et ne sont donc pas solubles dans l'eau. Pour contourner ce problème, il est connu d'utiliser des tensioactifs permettant de solubiliser les molécules parfumantes à l'intérieur de micelles formant des microémulsions. Il est souhaitable que les micelles gonflées contenant les parfums soient de petite taille pour que la composition parfumante ait un aspect transparent ou tout au moins translucide. Ainsi, la production de microémulsions répondant à ce critère d'aspect transparent revêt un intérêt majeur. Le document
D'autres contraintes sont liées à la stabilité thermodynamique de la microémulsion, au caractère non-collant de celle-ci et à l'absence de résidu sur la peau ou sur les vêtements. Il est donc important de pouvoir les préparer en utilisant le moins de tensioactif possible.Other constraints are linked to the thermodynamic stability of the microemulsion, to the non-sticky nature of the latter and to the absence of residue on the skin or on the clothes. It is therefore important to be able to prepare them using as little surfactant as possible.
Il existe donc un besoin pour une composition parfumante stable, contenant une quantité importante de parfum, qui soit transparente ou tout au moins translucide, et qui contienne le moins de tensioactif possible.There is therefore a need for a stable perfuming composition, containing a large amount of perfume, which is transparent or at least translucent, and which contains as little surfactant as possible.
La présente invention a pour but de fournir des microémulsions aqueuses, transparentes, substantiellement exemptes d'éthanol, contenant au moins une substance hydrophobe parfumante (de préférence au moins 3% et préférentiellement environ 10% de parfum), et au moins un solvo-surfactif volatil. De telles microémulsions odoriférantes ou parfumantes sont stables, et comprennent le moins possible de substances provoquant des effets indésirables, en particulier sur la peau et/ou sur l'environnement.The object of the present invention is to provide aqueous, transparent microemulsions, substantially free of ethanol, containing at least one hydrophobic perfume substance (preferably at least 3% and preferably approximately 10% of perfume), and at least one solvo-surfactant. volatile. Such odoriferous or perfuming microemulsions are stable, and include as few substances as possible causing undesirable effects, in particular on the skin and / or on the environment.
Selon l'invention, une substance est « volatile » lorsque sa température d'ébullition est inférieure à 250°C à pression atmosphérique. Les composés « non volatils » ont une température d'ébullition supérieure à 250°C à pression atmosphérique.According to the invention, a substance is “volatile” when its boiling point is less than 250 ° C. at atmospheric pressure. The “non-volatile” compounds have a boiling point greater than 250 ° C. at atmospheric pressure.
La présente invention se rapporte donc à une microémulsion de type huile-dans-eau comprenant, de préférence consistant en, en poids par rapport au poids total de microémulsion :
- * 70% à 94%, de préférence 70% à 90%, d'eau
- • 1% à 15%, de préférence 5% à 12%, d'au moins une substance hydrophobe parfumante,
- • 4% à 20%, de préférence 4% à 18%, d'au moins un solvo-surfactif, de préférence volatil, qui est un dérivé de glycérol monoalkylé de formule (I) suivante :
- • 0,1% à 15%, de préférence 1% à 13%, d'au moins un tensioactif anionique et d'au moins un alkylglucoside en tant qu'agent hydrotrope.
- * 70% to 94%, preferably 70% to 90%, water
- • 1% to 15%, preferably 5% to 12%, of at least one hydrophobic perfume substance,

Par « microémulsion de type huile-dans-eau », on désigne un système liquide dans lequel une phase huileuse (ou hydrophobe) est dispersée dans une phase continue aqueuse (ou hydrophile), de sorte à former des gouttes de diamètre inférieur à 100 nm. L'interface huile/eau est stabilisée par des composés tensioactifs. De préférence, les gouttes ont un diamètre compris entre 2 et 100 nm.The term “microemulsion of the oil-in-water type” denotes a liquid system in which an oily (or hydrophobic) phase is dispersed in an aqueous (or hydrophilic) continuous phase, so as to form drops with a diameter of less than 100 nm. . Interface oil / water is stabilized by surfactant compounds. Preferably, the drops have a diameter of between 2 and 100 nm.
Ces microémulsions présentent des gouttes qui sont invisibles à l'œil nu et au microscope optique. Elles sont transparentes, tout au moins translucides, contrairement aux émulsions, ce qui est une propriété recherchée notamment pour les compositions parfumantes.These microemulsions present drops which are invisible to the naked eye and to the optical microscope. They are transparent, at least translucent, unlike emulsions, which is a sought-after property in particular for perfume compositions.
Par « substance hydrophobe », on désigne un corps pur ou un mélange insoluble ou très peu soluble dans l'eau, par nature. Une méthode possible pour déterminer l'hydrophobicité des substances est de mesurer leur solubilité dans différents solvants ou le temps de rétention sur colonne chromatographique (par chromatographie en phase liquide à haute performance HPLC) de ladite substance hydrophobe.The term “hydrophobic substance” denotes a pure substance or a mixture which is insoluble or very slightly soluble in water, by nature. One possible method for determining the hydrophobicity of substances is to measure their solubility in different solvents or the retention time on a chromatographic column (by high performance liquid chromatography HPLC) of said hydrophobic substance.
Les substances hydrophobes selon l'invention sont parfumantes, i.e. elles sont odoriférantes et peuvent être utilisées dans les parfums. Par « substance odoriférante » on entend une substance détectable olfactivement par un sujet et/ou par olfactométrie, selon des principes connus de l'homme du métier. Un exemple de méthode permettant la détection d'une substance odoriférante est décrit dans le document
De préférence, la substance hydrophobe parfumante est une substance hydrophobe parfumante naturelle ou synthétique, plus préférentiellement naturelle. Plus préférentiellement, elle est choisie parmi les terpènes, les huiles essentielles et les composés naturels présentant des propriétés odoriférantes (terpénoïdes), notamment choisis parmi les aldéhydes, les esters, les cétones, les alcools, les phénols, les alcènes et les éthers.Preferably, the hydrophobic perfume substance is a natural or synthetic hydrophobic perfume substance, more preferably natural.

La quantité de solvo-surfactif volatil dans la microémulsion de l'invention est de 4% à 20% en poids, de préférence de 4% à 18% en poids, et encore plus préférentiellement de 4% à 10% en poids.The amount of volatile solvo-surfactant in the microemulsion of the invention is from 4% to 20% by weight, preferably from 4% to 18% by weight, and even more preferably from 4% to 10% by weight.
Par « tensioactif », on désigne un composé de nature amphiphile, non volatil, comportant une partie hydrophile et polaire, et une partie hydrophobe apolaire. Un tensioactif abaisse la tension superficielle des solutions aqueuses et diminue la tension interfaciale entre l'eau et un liquide organique non miscible. Il permet ainsi de solubiliser deux phases non miscibles, telles que l'eau et l'huile, en interagissant par sa partie polaire avec l'eau et par sa partie apolaire avec l'huile.The term “surfactant” denotes a compound of amphiphilic nature, non-volatile, comprising a hydrophilic and polar part, and an apolar hydrophobic part. A surfactant lowers the surface tension of aqueous solutions and lowers the interfacial tension between water and an immiscible organic liquid. It thus makes it possible to dissolve two immiscible phases, such as water and oil, by interacting through its polar part with water and by its non-polar part with oil.
Le tensioactif présent dans la microémulsion selon l'invention est un tensioactif anionique, à savoir un tensioactif dont la partie hydrophile est chargée négativement. Les tensioactifs anioniques se sont montrés les plus efficaces, dans le cadre de l'invention, par rapport aux tensioactifs non-ioniques, amphotères, ou cationiques. Par plus efficace, il faut entendre au sens de l'invention, une introduction de tensioactif en quantité plus faible pour former une microémulsion.The surfactant present in the microemulsion according to the invention is an anionic surfactant, namely a surfactant whose hydrophilic part is negatively charged. Anionic surfactants have been shown to be the most effective, in the context of the invention, compared with nonionic, amphoteric or cationic surfactants. For the purposes of the invention, the term “more effective” should be understood to mean an introduction of surfactant in a smaller amount to form a microemulsion.
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, le tensioactif anionique présent dans la microémulsion de l'invention est choisi parmi :
- les alkylsulfonates, et notamment :
- le sodium C14-17 sulfonate (SAS),
- le sulfosuccinate de dihexyle (DHS) de formule :
- le sulfosuccinate d'éthyl-2-hexyle (Aérosol OT® ou AOT de chez CYTEC) de formule :

et notamment l'isooctylbenzènesulfonate de sodium, l'isononyl benzènesulfonate de sodium ou l'isododécylbenzènesulfonate de sodium de formule : - les propoxysulfates de formule :

- et les sels d'acides gras de formule R-CO2- M+, dans laquelle R représente une chaîne carbonée, linéaire ou ramifiée, saturée ou insaturée, contenant 8 à 18 atomes de carbone, et M+ représente un cation choisi parmi les ions Na+, K+, NH4 +, (HOCH2CH2)3NH+, notamment le sel d'acide oléique de formule CH3(CH2)7CH=CH(CH2)7CO2 - M+ dans lequel M+ a les significations définies ci-dessus.
- alkylsulfonates, and in particular:
- sodium C14-17 sulfonate (SAS),
- dihexyl sulfosuccinate (DHS) of the formula:
- ethyl-2-hexyl sulfosuccinate (Aerosol OT® or AOT from CYTEC) of formula:
- alkylarylsulphonates of formula:
and in particular sodium isooctylbenzenesulphonate, sodium isononyl benzenesulphonate or sodium isododecylbenzenesulphonate of formula: - propoxysulphates of formula:
- alkyl sulphates, in particular salts of lauryl sulphate such as sodium lauryl sulphate also called sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), ammonium lauryl sulphate (ALS); sodium alkyl ether sulfates such as sodium lauryl ether (laureth) sulfate (LES); sodium coconut sulfate (SCS),
- and salts of fatty acids of formula R-CO2 - M + , in which R represents a carbon chain, linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, containing 8 to 18 carbon atoms, and M + represents a cation chosen from ions Na + , K + , NH 4 + , (HOCH 2 CH 2 ) 3 NH + , in particular the oleic acid salt of formula CH 3 (CH2) 7 CH = CH (CH 2 ) 7 CO 2 - M + in which M + has the meanings defined above.
La microémulsion comprend un alkyl glucoside en tant qu'agent hydrotrope. Par « agent hydrotrope », on entend un composé amphiphile, comprenant des groupes fonctionnels hydrophiles, utilisé pour permettre la solubilisation de substances faiblement solubles dans une solution aqueuse.The microemulsion comprises an alkyl glucoside as a hydrotropic agent. By “hydrotropic agent” is meant an amphiphilic compound, comprising hydrophilic functional groups, used to allow the solubilization of poorly soluble substances in an aqueous solution.
D'une façon surprenante, la Demanderesse a démontré que la combinaison d'au moins un tensioactif anionique et d'au moins un alkylglucoside permet d'augmenter le point trouble de la microémulsion.Surprisingly, the Applicant has demonstrated that the combination of at least one anionic surfactant and of at least one alkylglucoside makes it possible to increase the cloud point of the microemulsion.
Par point trouble selon l'invention, on entend la température à partir de laquelle la microémulsion passe d'un état transparent (voire translucide) à un état trouble voire laiteux. La microémulsion selon l'invention doit garder une stabilité dans des conditions d'usages classiques et de fait doit être stable, et donc rester transparente voire translucide, dans une gamme de températures comprises entre 5°C et 45°C incluses.By cloud point according to the invention is meant the temperature above which the microemulsion changes from a transparent (or even translucent) state to a cloudy or even milky state. The microemulsion according to the invention must maintain stability under conventional conditions of use and in fact must be stable, and therefore remain transparent or even translucent, in a temperature range of between 5 ° C and 45 ° C inclusive.
Ainsi grâce à une combinaison judicieuse de tensioactif et d'alkylglucoside il est possible d'obtenir une microémulsion stable en utilisant une très faible quantité de tensioactif. Des microémulsions ne contenant que le tensioactif seul, ou ne contenant que l'alkylglucoside seul, à des quantités équivalentes ou quasi-équivalentes ne sont en revanche pas stables. Il existe donc un effet de synergie entre le tensioactif anionique et l'alkylglucoside.Thus, thanks to a judicious combination of surfactant and alkylglucoside, it is possible to obtain a stable microemulsion using a very small amount of surfactant. Microemulsions containing only the surfactant alone, or containing only the alkylglucoside alone, in equivalent or almost equivalent amounts are, on the other hand, not stable. There is therefore a synergistic effect between the anionic surfactant and the alkylglucoside.
En outre, cet effet de synergie a également un impact positif sur la quantité de solvo-surfactif introduite dans la microémulsion. Ainsi grâce à l'utilisation conjointe de tensioactif anionique et d'alkylglucoside, il est possible d'utiliser des quantités de solvosurfactif plus faibles, à savoir allant de de 4% à 10% en poids par rapport au poids total de la microémulsion. Dans les exemples ci-après, une quantité de 5% de solvo-surfactif permet d'obtenir une microémulsion stable et une parfaite solubilisation de la substance hydrophobe parfumante. La diminution de la quantité de solvo-surfactif se fait au profit de la quantité d'eau qui peut ainsi être augmentée. Le caractère aqueux de la microémulsion est ainsi augmenté.In addition, this synergistic effect also has a positive impact on the amount of solvo-surfactant introduced into the microemulsion. Thus, thanks to the joint use of anionic surfactant and of alkylglucoside, it is possible to use quantities of lower solvosurfactants, namely ranging from 4% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the microemulsion. In the examples below, an amount of 5% of solvo-surfactant makes it possible to obtain a stable microemulsion and perfect solubilization of the hydrophobic perfume substance. The decrease in the amount of solvo-surfactant is done in favor of the amount of water which can thus be increased. The aqueous character of the microemulsion is thus increased.
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, l'alkyl glucoside présent dans la microémulsion de l'invention est choisi parmi l'heptyl glucoside, l'octyl glucoside, le décyl glucoside et leurs mélanges, et est de préférence l'heptyl glucoside.According to an advantageous embodiment, the alkyl glucoside present in the microemulsion of the invention is chosen from heptyl glucoside, octyl glucoside, decyl glucoside and their mixtures, and is preferably heptyl glucoside.

Plus particulièrement, dans la microémulsion de l'invention :

Les synthèses du 1-méthoxy-3-propoxypropan-2-ol (C301) et du 1-méthoxy-3-pentoxypropan-2-ol (C501) se réalisent en deux étapes. La synthèse du 1-méthoxy-3-butoxypropan-2-ol (C401) est réalisée simplement par ouverture de l'époxyde dans la mesure où le réactif de départ, le butylglycidol, est accessible commercialement.The syntheses of 1-methoxy-3-propoxypropan-2-ol (C301) and 1-methoxy-3-pentoxypropan-2-ol (C501) are carried out in two stages. The synthesis of 1-methoxy-3-butoxypropan-2-ol (C401) is carried out simply by opening the epoxide insofar as the starting reagent, butylglycidol, is commercially available.
La condensation de l'alcool (1 mole) sur l'épichlorhydrine se fait en léger excès d'épichlorhydrine (1,5 moles) en présence de ZnCl2 comme catalyseur. L'épichlorhydrine est ajoutée goutte à goutte pendant 1h à 100°C. Le milieu réactionnel est ensuite maintenu à 115°C pendant 5h puis refroidi à 50°C. Un ajout goutte à goutte pendant 1h de NaOH (2,3 moles) à 48% est alors effectué. Toutes ces étapes de synthèse sont réalisées sous forte agitation. Une fois la réaction terminée, on ajoute de l'eau distillée et le produit est ainsi lavé 2 fois à l'eau pour éliminer les sels résiduels.
Le produit obtenu est enfin distillé sous vide à 10-20 mbars entre 75 et 80°C.The product obtained is finally distilled under vacuum at 10-20 mbar between 75 and 80 ° C.
Le Cnglycidol (où n = 3, 4, 5) est ajouté goutte à goutte à une solution de méthanol contenant du méthanolate de sodium préalablement obtenu par réaction entre le méthanol et du sodium solide. L'ajout est effectué à reflux à 80°C pendant 30 min, puis la température de 80°C est maintenue pendant 24h jusqu'à disparition totale de Cnglycidol :
Le méthanol est évaporé à l'évaporateur rotatif une fois la réaction terminée. Le produit obtenu est ensuite lavé avec deux solutions aqueuses saturées en NaCl: l'une contenant 3,4% de HCl et l'autre contenant 10% de NaHVCO3.The methanol is evaporated off on a rotary evaporator once the reaction is complete. The product obtained is then washed with two saturated aqueous NaCl solutions: one containing 3.4% of HCl and the other containing 10% of NaHVCO 3 .

Dans une seconde étape, l'intermédiaire ainsi obtenu est mis à réagir en milieu basique en présence de diméthylsulfate afin d'obtenir la méthylation de la fonction alcool secondaire libre. Après une troisième étape d'hydrogénation catalytique en présence d'hydrogène et de palladium sur charbon, le produit final est obtenu.
Le but de cet essai est de classer les solvo-surfactifs selon leur capacité à solubiliser (ou non) le gamma-undecalactone.The aim of this test is to classify the solvo-surfactants according to their capacity to solubilize (or not) gamma-undecalactone.

Le tableau ci-après détaille la quantité de SS nécessaire pour solubiliser le parfum.
On obtient le classement suivant: C510 > C501 > C401 > C410 > C310.The following classification is obtained: C510> C501> C401> C410> C310.
Le solvo-surfactif présentant les meilleures capacités à solubiliser la substance hydrophobe parfumante est le C510.The solvo-surfactant with the best ability to dissolve the hydrophobic perfume substance is C510.
Le jus de parfum suivant (P) a été préparé :
Puis les formulations suivantes ont été préparées :
Pour être acceptables, les formulations A, B, C, D et E doivent être stables en température sur un intervalle allant de 5°C à 45°C.To be acceptable, formulations A, B, C, D and E must be temperature stable over a range of 5 ° C to 45 ° C.
Après observation, les formulations limpides sont considérées comme stables et les formulations troubles sont considérées instables. Le tableau ci-dessus reporte les compositions stables (« OK ») et les compositions ayant conduit à une déstabilisation (apparition d'un trouble) (« KO »).After observation, clear formulations are considered stable and cloudy formulations are considered unstable. The above table shows the stable compositions (“OK”) and the compositions which have led to destabilization (appearance of a cloudiness) (“KO”).
Seules les formulations C et D comprenant une association d'un tensioactif anionique et d'un alkylglucoside présentent une stabilité sur l'ensemble de la plage de température 5°C à 45°C.Only formulations C and D comprising a combination of an anionic surfactant and an alkylglucoside exhibit stability over the entire temperature range 5 ° C to 45 ° C.
Avantageusement la composition D présente l'ensemble des bénéfices de l'invention grâce à la mise en œuvre d'un ratio judicieux « tensioactif : alkylglucoside » qui est de 1:6, permettant d'obtenir une formulation aqueuse riche en eau (> à 85%) en présence d'une faible quantité de solvo-surfactif (5%).Advantageously, composition D exhibits all the benefits of the invention thanks to the use of a judicious “surfactant: alkylglucoside” ratio which is 1: 6, making it possible to obtain an aqueous formulation rich in water (> to 85%) in the presence of a small amount of solvo-surfactant (5%).
Une microémulsion de l'invention, à savoir la formulation D décrite dans l'exemple 3 précédent, qui comprend le solvo-surfactif C510, est comparée à deux autres microémulsions (formulations D1 et D2) qui comprennent respectivement de l'hexylène glycol et du propylène glycol à la place du solvo-surfactif C510.A microemulsion of the invention, namely formulation D described in example 3 above, which comprises the solvo-surfactant C510, is compared with two other microemulsions (formulations D1 and D2) which respectively comprise hexylene glycol and propylene glycol in place of the solvo-surfactant C510.
L'hexylène glycol et le propylène glycol ne répondent pas à la formule (I) du solvo-surfactif de l'invention.
Le jus de parfum P est tel que décrit à l'exemple 3.The perfume juice P is as described in Example 3.
L'heptyl glucoside utilisé est celui commercialisé par Seppic sous la dénomination « Sepiclear G7 ».The heptyl glucoside used is that marketed by Seppic under the name “Sepiclear G7”.
Le lauryl sulfate de sodium (SDS) utilisé est celui commercialisé par BASF sous la dénomination « Texaplon LS30 »The sodium lauryl sulfate (SDS) used is that marketed by BASF under the name "Texaplon LS30"
Comme déjà indiqué, pour être acceptables, les formulations D, D1 et D2 doivent être stables en température sur un intervalle allant de 5°C à 45°C.As already indicated, to be acceptable, formulations D, D1 and D2 must be temperature stable over a range of 5 ° C to 45 ° C.
Les formulations sont placées dans un bain à 5°C et à 45°C, pendant 24h.The formulations are placed in a bath at 5 ° C. and at 45 ° C. for 24 hours.
Après observation, les formulations limpides sont considérées comme stables et les formulations troubles sont considérées instables.After observation, clear formulations are considered stable and cloudy formulations are considered unstable.
Il est ainsi observé qu'à J0, à température ambiante, la formulation D est limpide tandis que les formulations D1 et D2 sont déjà opalescentes.It is thus observed that at D0, at room temperature, formulation D is clear while formulations D1 and D2 are already opalescent.
Au bout de 24 heures, aussi bien à 5°C qu'à 45°C, les formulations D1 et D2 sont troubles et un déphasage important est observé, tandis que la formulation D de l'invention est restée limpide.After 24 hours, both at 5 ° C and 45 ° C, formulations D1 and D2 are cloudy and a significant phase shift is observed, while formulation D of the invention has remained clear.
Ce test comparatif démontre donc l'importance jouée par le solvo-surfactif de l'invention.This comparative test therefore demonstrates the importance played by the solvo-surfactant of the invention.
